Refurbished devices are a lot cheaper than buying new and they’re great if you’re on a budget! If you’re not sure where to buy a second hand iPhone, Justroo has a huge range of second hand iPhone devices in all conditions and different storage options.
Read on to learn more about the different places you can buy refurbished iPhone devices, how to buy a refurbished iPhone and why you should go refurbished!
What is a refurbished iPhone?
A refurbished iPhone is a device that has been previously used and has gone through necessary checks to be in full working order.
Refurbished phones are given conditions or grades so you know if the device has any cosmetic damage such as scuffs or scratches. In general the better the condition, the more it will cost.
Here at Justroo, we have three conditions for our refurbished iPhone devices and other mobile phones.
These include Pristine, which refers to devices in excellent working order; Very Good, which refers to devices in good cosmetic condition with light signs of use; and Good, which means the device has signs of wear and tear.
You can also buy refurbished iPhone devices that are network locked or unlocked. Unlocked phones cost a little more but offer more freedom when it comes to choosing minutes, texts and data plan.
